well, accept him, please. Chris is one of the co-founders
of Debian and if there was a "Debian Director", then this
would probably be him. Chris is both technical and strategically
interested in Debian, wants to do good for our community,
and the world at large.
I very much hope, and kind of expect, to have Chris developing
for full DDship over the upcoming months/years. What one does
not see discussed too frequently, with Debian and its images
becoming steadily more accepted for cloud usage, we will also
see more applications brought to Debian. And whenever there
are free components to it, there is speaking little against
offering them through the official Debian channels. So, we
really want to have Chris and his colleagues with us, as
maintainers now and if one or two also become DDs, then this
would be of tremendous benefit for Debian and the Open Source
community at large.
Well, what I wrote for Dan mostly applies also for Chris.
Best,
Steffen
